A campaign of miracles?
I find it funny that the most colorful presidential candidate in recent memory (except Trump and Biden, obviously) has her own page on the website of the World Religions and Spirituality Project.
Yes, that would be New Age teacher Marianne Williamson.
I didn´t know she was Jewish or had a background in ACIM (A Course In Miracles) specifically, while her connections to the hippie counter-culture are perhaps less surprising. In fact, I didn´t know she even existed before her 2020 bid for the Dem nomination. In reality, Williamson is apparently the most popular promoter of ACIM, propelled to fame through Oprah Winfrey Show! Note that she has de-Christianized ACIM (which purports to be a channeled message from Jesus) to give it a wider appeal (presumably in New Age and secular circles).
The WRSP entry hasn´t been updated since 2020, so I include a second link about her 2024 primary campaign, which she recently suspended.

A living Kennedy

Robert F Kennedy Jr (yes, he really is the son of *the* Robert F Kennedy) recently announced his decision to run for president. Or rather run in the Democratic presidential primaries, thus challenging Joe Biden, who is expected to announce his re-election bid soon. RFK Jr is an environmentalist activist, an anti-vaxxer and a supposed “conspiracy theorist”. For instance, he doesn´t believe that his father and uncle were killed by lone gunmen, go figure!
A recent poll shows that 14% of 2020 Biden voters support Kennedy, which is intriguing to be sure, but it´s still too early to tell whether he will really be a problem for Joe in 2024. Probably not, if Trump is the apparent GOP nominee!
In completely unrelated news, Marianne Williamson – the peculiar New Age candidate from the 2020 Dem primaries – has announced that she will make a second attempt…
Not sure if any of this means anything at all, but at least now you know.
